Are You Aware of the Advancements in Gaskets for HF Acid Alkylation?

Download Technical Paper

This paper explains the critical nature of HF Acid environments and surveys the gaskets that have traditionally been used for this service. It explores the sealing problems that have plagued HF Acid Alkylation units and demonstrates that they are a result of shortcomings in the design of current gaskets. It was developed through a year-long research and development project that established a menu of “ideal” characteristics for HF alky gaskets by drawing upon years of experience, trial and error, refinement and mathematical analysis. The result of all of this is in the ALKY-ONE™ gasket, a gasket that is uniquely designed for HF Acid Alkylation.
